You took the day off. You canceled plans. You slept in. And yet… you’re still exhausted.
In this episode, we unpack the real reason why rest isn’t always restorative—especially for high-achieving, neurodivergent, or chronically overwhelmed women.
I share my personal journey of leaving corporate life, slowing down, and still feeling depleted—and the truth I wish more people talked about: Being in survival mode makes rest feel impossible.
We’ll break down:
The 7 types of rest (and why sleep isn’t enough)
How fight-or-flight and functional freeze sabotage your energy
Why “doing nothing” still doesn’t help if you’re mentally on
How to create real restoration in a hustle-heavy world
If you’re tired but wired, this one’s for you.
